This was definitely my favorite of the Vamp Academy series so far.

Though already a Richelle Mead fan, I was originally tentative to read this series. I can only read so many vampire stories. But as usual the characters won me over and I'm now fully enthralled in this series.

For those who haven't yet, I would suggest reading the first three books first. This book does a fine job of keeping you up with previous story lines but you will have a greater appreciation for this book if you've read what went before.

Excellent addition to the WOTO series. This book gets us back to the Clay and Elena characters we love and delivers the fantastic action/suspense blend Armstrong excels at. Definitely a great read for Armstrong fans.
For newcomers to this author, I don't know what you are waiting for. The WOTO series is great if you like strong heroines who drive their own action filled plots. If you couldn't tell I'm a bit biased but I definitely recommend the whole series. Would suggest this for fans of Laurell K Hamilton, Patricia Briggs, and Kim Harrison looking for news reads.

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by this book. Most books I usually have to give about 50 pages before they get past the exhibition phase and start to get interesting. This one however grabbed me from the very first page. Vicki Pettersson's writing was sharp and witty and made me literally laugh aloud on multiple occasions.

One of the most interesting things about this book were it's characters. They were both strong and flawed, all with stories behind them, well motivated and interesting. It was refreshing.

Anyone looking for a great read with a dynamic storyline and engaging characters won't be disappointed.
